Exide Industries (EXID) reported better-than-expected results for 1QFY2013, driven by strong volume growth in the two-wheeler (+28% yoy) and industrial battery (+19% yoy) segments. EBITDA margin however, remained suppressed led by higher input costs and other expenditure. We have raised our top-line estimates slightly for FY2013E/14E as we believe the anticipated improvement in auto OEM sales and pick-up in the auto replacement battery segment will benefit the company. We maintain our Accumulate rating on the stock.

Better-than-expected operating performance: For 1QFY2013, EXID’s top-line surprised positively, registering robust 24.5% yoy (7.3% qoq) growth to `1,554cr, driven by strong growth in the two-wheeler (+28% yoy) and industrial battery volumes (+19% yoy). Growth in the industrial battery segment was led by growth in inverter and UPS batteries. Four-wheeler battery volumes continued to remain subdued and grew 10% yoy aided by demand pick-up in the replacement segment. EBITDA margin slipped by 285bp yoy to 15% owing to raw-material cost increases (+140bp yoy) and higher other expenditure (+170bp yoy). While the lead prices declined 22% yoy (6% qoq), INR depreciation against the USD (~21% yoy and ~8% qoq) negated most of the resulting advantages. Other expenditure increased primarily led by foreign exchange loss of `10cr. As a result, net profit declined by 6.9% yoy to `152cr.

Outlook and valuation: We expect EXID to report improvement in its performance in FY2013E led by likely revival in demand in the four-wheeler OEM as well as replacement batteries and decline in lead prices. Nonetheless, current valuations of 14.5x FY2014E earnings, captures most of the positives in our view. We therefore maintain our Accumulate rating on the stock with a target price of `149. We value EXID’s core operations in-line with its historical average of 15x its FY2014E EPS at `137/share. We value its stake in ING Vysya Life Insurance at `12/share on FY2014E NBAP.

Top-line growth surprises positively: EXID reported better-than-expected 24.5% yoy (7.3% qoq) growth in its top line to `1,554cr, driven by strong growth in two-wheeler and industrial battery volumes. While the two-wheeler segment posted 28% yoy volume growth, industrial battery volumes grew by 19% yoy despite de-growth in the telecom battery sales. Four-wheeler battery volumes, however, remained subdued registering a 10% yoy growth led by demand pick-up in the replacement battery segment.


July 17, 2012

EXID is planing to raise two-wheeler and industrial battery capacity by ~6% (to 22.8mn) and 4% (to 2,500mnAH), respectively, in FY2013. Four-wheeler battery capacity currently stands at 11mn units, which is expected to increase to 12mn by the end of 1HFY2013.

During the quarter, EXID rolled out Home UPS systems across India under its own brand and the product has been accepted well by the markets.

Exhibit 3: Better-than-expected top-line growth of 24.5% yoy


Operating margin still under pressure: During 1QFY2013, the company’s operating margin stood at 15%, a decline of 285bp yoy, primarily on account of higher raw-material expenses (+140bp yoy) and increase in other expenditure (+170bp yoy). While the lead prices declined 22% yoy (6% qoq), INR depreciation against the USD (~21% yoy and ~8% qoq) negated most of the resulting advantages. Other expenditure increased to 14.5% of net sales on account of higher advertising spends as well as forex loss of `10cr. Adjusted for the forex loss, EBITDA margin stood at 15.6%. On a sequential basis, raw material cost/sales declined by 210bp on account of lower lead prices and superior product mix in favor of replacement segment.

Net profit declines 6.9% yoy: EXID reported 6.9% yoy decline in net profit to `152cr led mainly by margin contraction and higher tax outgo (tax rate of 30.4% in 1QFY2013 vs. 28.5% in 1QFY2012). Lower other income (down 52.1% yoy) in 1QFY2013 due to lack of dividend income from subsidiaries also impacted the bottom-line performance. However, due to better-than-expected top-line growth net profit grew 6.7% sequentially.

Investment arguments

Demand scenario for auto and industrial batteries to remain positive in the long run: The auto and industrial battery segments have been witnessing strong growth post the economic downturn, driven by robust demand-pull on account of higher auto and industrial production and increased consumer spending. As a result, we expect the auto and industrial battery segments to continue to grow, generating revenue CAGRs of ~15% and ~12%, respectively, over FY2012-14E. Hence, we forecast EXID to register strong revenue CAGRs of ~15% and ~14% in the auto and industrial battery segments, respectively.

Market leader with a wider reach and pricing power: EXID is a dominant player in the auto battery (OEM and replacement) and industrial battery segments with a market share of 60-65% and 40-45%, respectively. EXID has leveraged upon its brand equity, better quality proposition and wider reach to consolidate its position in the market, which gives the company a superior pricing power compared to peers. Over the years, EXID has been able to improve its realization across the auto and industrial battery segments, which has more than offset the movements in input prices. We expect EXID to continue to leverage upon its market leadership position and pricing power, which would enhance the company’s ability to pass on cost increases in the future as well.

Captive sourcing reduces impact of lead price volatility: EXID acquired Tandon Metals (FY2008) and Leadage Alloys (51% in FY2009 and 49% in 2QFY2011) to recycle lead and lessen the vulnerability of rising lead prices. This reduced the company's dependence on imported lead in FY2011 to 28-30% (~32% in FY2010). Total lead supplied by the captive smelter increased to ~52% in FY2011 from ~50% in FY2010. EXID has benefitted from its captive sourcing strategy, as lead sourcing from captive smelters is 10-12% cheaper compared to market rates. Going forward, EXID plans to increase sourcing from its smelters to ~70% by FY2013E. Our sensitivity analysis suggests that for every 10% increase in sourcing from captive smelters, the company’s EBITDA margin expands by ~50bp (assuming stable lead prices).

Capacity expansion to increase volume growth: EXID has been operating at ~90% utilization levels over the past five years. Hence, the company is in the process of increasing its battery capacity to cater to the growing demand. As a result of increased capacity, we believe EXID is well placed to meet the rising auto battery demand. We estimate the company’s overall utilization level to remain at 75-80% in FY2014E. Further, we expect EXID to post volume CAGRs of ~13% each in the auto and industrial battery segments, respectively, over FY2012-14E.

Outlook and valuation

We maintain our long-term positive outlook on the battery industry. We have raised our volume and top-line estimates slightly for FY2013E/14E as we believe the anticipated improvement in auto OEM sales and pick-up in the auto replacement battery segment will benefit the company.

We expect EXID to report improvement in its performance in FY2013E led by likely revival in demand in the four-wheeler OEM as well as replacement batteries and decline in lead prices. Nonetheless, current valuations of 14.5x FY2014E earnings, captures most of the positives in our view. We therefore maintain our Accumulate rating on the stock with a target price of `149. We value EXID’s core operations in-line with its historical average of 15x its FY2014E EPS at `137/share. We value its stake in ING Vysya Life Insurance at `12/share on FY2014E NBAP.
